The stest of. selective service, asa principle of modern war policy, will come when it is seen how the young men registered are made to fit and how the exemption claims are treat: ed. ¥| do a great deal more. ing just enough to save one’s con- science. But America calls upon all of us to It is given all of us in some way to serve the coun- try we love, to aid our land conse- crated by the blood of the fathers. For some there is the opportunity of making the supreme sacrifice in the battle lines or on the seas. But there are millions of us who will not have this chance to lay the ultimate gift upon the altar of devotion. Lacking this, it is up to each and every one of us to do our very best for our country. If America calls upon us for money, let us contribute, not our bit, but the very largest sum we can give. If America calls upon us to serve in the munition factories or other lines of industry that will help win the war, let us give every ounce of our energy and strength to the work. If America calls upon us to increase the food supply by labor- ing on the farms, let us see how much }|and not how little we can do. Only in that way, can we begin to approximate the work done hy our soldiers and sailors, by our Red Cross doctors and nurses. We should con- sider ourselves the soldiers back~ of the soldiers. We fight the enemy when we supply the money and make the munitions.and raise the food. and | do all the things that are necessary to be done back home. Every German is doing his utmost to win the war. Only by at least equaling the Germans in devotion to country can we hope to defeat them. We must beat them by having the most men, the most shells, the most ships, the most food, the most of everything that is needed in a world- war. That means that every one of us must every day ask himself or her- self this question: “In what new ways op I.serve America? In what old way’ can I increase my service?” :And if. we do this’ earnestly and‘ honestly, be very sure we wil! find the Fight meas to’ do“out utmost in order that our land may, be reseiv: ed. for. our‘ children and 4that the world may ‘be freed from future men- ace of the horror which is war. As ‘President Wilson might say to congress, . “Eventually — why F not now?” meds EXILE—A JUST PUNISHMENT. To a man who loves this country and ‘what it stands for, ‘there could be no more terrible sentence, short A considerable percentage of those, of ‘death ithelf, than to be: ordered to who have registered have declared their unwillingness to go into the war. Absolute fairness and impar- tiality in allowing exemptions and wise location of these young men in war work will dissipate this unwill- ingness in very large degree. Special selection because of spe- cial fitness for the nation’s service appeals to most intelligent young men, and to their parents, too, wheth- er or not these young men want to bear arms; but the difficulty of the work of impartial exemption and wise selection appears conspicuous when it is remembered that “niany thous- ands of those registered have not, even in peace, found the place in which they would best fit, or at least not as producers. On the other hand, there is a special advantage about this war in that it is; practically, a new game, with the vast majority of war jobs far behind the firing tines. Even the corner idler, or the hanger- on at race tracks or sport fields, or any of the idle poor or idle rich is hardly more of a beginner, in respect of modern warfare, than the fellow who has for years been standing in leave it ard never return. , But even to the man who does not love this country and does not ‘appreciate the blessings of our liberty, a sentence of exile must be a terrible thing, especially if he is to be thrown hack into Europe, where the ordinary man has such a struggle. Louis Kramer of New York was sentenced the other day to pay a very large fine and to serve a term in the penitentiary for opposing the con- scription laws and failing to register. But by far his worst punishment came in the last words pronounced by Fed- eral Judge Mayer. The court’ rév- ommended that the man be deported from this country upon the comple- tion of his prison term. If the punishment seems stern, it must be remembered the offense was great. America in the past has open- ed her gates wide to all who would enter. It made the privilege of citi- zenship comparatively easy. In re- turn, the least that could be expect- ed was obedience to the laws of the land and loyal service in time of na- tional trial and peril. Kramer was willing to render neith- our standing army with little excite- ment save semi-annual vaccination. The diversified character of the wartare gives large leeway in the dis- allowance of exemptions claimed. For instance, a young man with re- ligious scruples too strong to permit him to pull a trigger can be fitted in to pushing a freight house truck. And if he’s too scrupulous for that, for heaven's sake make a chaplain of him! There will be plenty of places wherein men will fit who never fitted anywhere, before. Eut, finally, all reasonable objection to the selective service plan will be eliminated by just and intelligent action on the part of those passing upon the exemptions and placing the fit where they'll fit. Team work is what counts, and mighty poor pulling is done by the team many of whose members aren't willing. SPIRIT OF SERVICE, = It has been said, and rightly so, that the spirit of America in 1917 is one of service. And by the same tok- en, it is a very unfortunate thing that in calling our men and women to serve, we have adopted the British slogan about “doing one’s bit.” “Bit,” to the American mind, con- veys the idea of the minimum, in- stead of the maximum. To do one's bit, therefore, means doing just as y di er obedience nor service. He went further and sought to have others behave in a treasonable way. He got exactly what he deserved. There should be no trouble this year in finding something better than firecrackers to put the spending money into. HELP FROM “HIGHBROWS.” In the good old days gone by it has been the custom, if not the privi- lege, of the so-called lowbrows to poke fun at the so-called highbrows Frequently not only good-natured fun was produced at the expense of the highbrows, but good, solid brickbats were hurled, as well. War.’ however, is showing us that the highbrows can help a great deal in ways that are valuable. the reasons for this is that they have the time. Perhaps that is one of the main reasons. And the highbrows probably are getting a great deal of joy out of the novelty of doing something really use- ful. Take the case of Montclair, N. J., for example. Montclair is a highbrow town. : The women of Montclair probably are as well organized for war work as any in the country. Practically the whole town is on a war footing.

These Montclair women have done real work. They have had the time and the money. They have been able to do things. The thing worth praising about these women is not that they have occupied their time, but that they have had the unusual good sense to do something sensible and worth while with their time. They might have been content to don natty suits and look pleasant. President Wilson promises we'll not quit till Belgium is restored. We agree to that, all right. : King Alfonso, beware! You're too popular and democratic for the ordi- nary run of kings and such. The starving Germans are begin- ning to see that sinking an allied food ship isn’t bringing home the bacon kings and Alfonso of Spain seems willing to quit. We hear Charles Ed- ward Russell, over in Russia, repeat- ing his refrain: “No more kings, no more wars.” NOTICE 10 GITIZENS OF BISMARCK CONCERNING moval. You are required to provide your- selves with metal covered garbage receptacles. You must keep these garbage cans in a place where they can be reached easily by the collect- ors. The health of the community demands that all garbage ‘be coilect- ed regularly and we ask that you co- operate with the city in making this collection a success. The ordinance further provides that any violation is punishable by a fine of not less than $5 and not more than $25. Have four cans ready for the collector when he calls. C. L.

RECRUITING WEEK FOR REGULAR ARMY 10 OPEN IN BISMARCK TOMORROW President Wilson Calls Upon Un- married Men to Present Themselves at Stations National recruiting week for the fed- eral army will.open at the Bismarck recruiting station in the Soo hotel to- morrow morning and will continue un- til the Saturday night following. Edmond Dupont; in charge of the Bismarck recruiting office of the Uni- {ted States army, yesterday received notice of President Wilson’s proclama- tion, reading {npart: “I hereby des- ignate the period from June 23 to June 30, next, as recfuiting week for the regular army and call upon un- married men between the ages of 18 and 40 years who have no dependents and who are not engaged in pursuits vitally necessary to the prosecution of the war to present themselves dur- ing the week herein designated to be numbered to 70,000.” Officer Dupont is prepared to begin registering eligibles tomorrow morn- needed to fill the ranks of Company A it is anticipated that a large number of young men of this vicinity will pre- sent) themselves. Wolfe Heads His Qwn Company and May Play Capital Frank Wolfe, well remembered in Bismarck as proprietor of the Grand theater for a number of months during 1916, writes M. J. O'Connor from Re- gina, Sask., that he is at the head of his own company “with 20 people in the company, and playing just as good time and as big money as any of the outfits with a bigger ‘nut’.” Which means, in show parlance, that while the “nut” or cash capital back of Wolfe’s aggregation is not as big as some, he is getting away with good money. He expected to play 10 days at Regina and has week stands billed in other northwestern Canadian ciites. He intimates that on his way back from the coast he may decide to pay Bismarck a visit. His company, called the “California Belles,” goes in for musical comedy, and Marie ‘Wolfe, wife of the manager, is starring with the aggregation. $6 to $13.50 saved on your spring suit.
